We value your donation since it helps us keep the lounge in tune and fix the computers/servers. We make very efficient use of your donations for two reasons:

−

We can always use new hardware here at LUG, whether it's a new monitor, printer, or a gigabit ethernet switch.

+

# open source software runs well on old hardware.

+

# LUGs in general are interested in how things work, and will fix/salvage broken things.

−

While we're particularly fond of legacy hardware, we can't use it if it's broken!

+

We accept any form of donation, not just money!

−

Most of our monitors and our two printers are salvaged and at various working conditions. For example, one of the printers is fond of paper jams and one of the monitors seems to have an acute taste for pink.
